India women batters must solve dot-ball problem

Chasing an imposing 197 in the first game, India had 51 dot balls. Simply put, eight and half overs went scoreless. In the second match, the Women in Blue were bowled out for 80 in 16.2 overs. Again, 53 balls, just one delivery short of 9 overs, weren’t scored off. India need to be more discerning and judicious in their use of DRS. In the second match, both Smriti and Harmanpreet took the DRS when they looked plumb leg-before. So did Jemima in the third game.
